Hey Guys,
With so many people evaluating the iTGB and having trouble ( like myself :-P) it would be nice to hear of people who have successfully submitted an application to the app store.
please feel free to list your games and brief descriptions of them here.

People were impressed with the level of quality and fun factor you have produced, and I'm proud that our engine has helped you get there. A lot of developers never finish a project, but some of you have managed to release several. That is amazing, and I look forward to more! =)
I definitely spent more time than I should have playing them, especially Pop-A-Tronic, Drums Challenge, and Hospital Havoc.

@All - Just wanted to say congratulations to everyone who has been releasing games using our iPhone engines.

Click here to go to the Hunter Sub page in the App Store.
I blogged about it on GarageGames: www.garagegames.com/community/blogs/view/17999
Also set up a web page: www.topmeadow.com/iPhone/huntersub/
I got the approval email yesterday around noon, but it took 22 hours to actually show up in the store. So if Archangel doesn't show up in the store today don't panic.

Buggle showed up in the App Store over the weekend. It was approved about a week earlier than I thought it would take so maybe App Store approvals are coming through quicker now.Click here to go to the Buggle page in the App Store.

The first is Solution Zero (Solution Zero) which is a math-based puzzle game. It took roughly 4 weeks to develop and has over 325K puzzles, which is something like 2000 hours of gameplay. Not bad for $.99. I believe it took 2 weeks to get approved, as did the Lite version (Solution Zero Lite).
Our most recent release is Western Wind (Western Wind), a music game with a Simon Sez mode. It pays homage to one of the greatest scenes in movie history, the Blazing Saddles fart scene... 6 cowboys who put the music back into musical fruit. The game has received some great reviews so far both online and in iTunes, but probably won't get the Apple support it needs to succeed because it's a fart game.
The game currently in review is called Kitty Chorus. It's based on the same game as Western Wind, only instead of farting cowboys it has meowing cats. You can play songs with them (each cat represents two different musical notes), save your songs to playback later, and play our version of Simon Sez. With any luck it'll get approved today or tomorrow... been in review for 17 days now.
Our next game is going to be an alternative sports title which we hope can take advantage of 1.3 and the iphone 3.0 features a bit. We'll see.
So far we've had an overall good experience with iTGB. Coming from the console side of development it's definitely caused a few headaches with some of the seemingly random issues, but it's still young and we have high hopes for it in the future.

The free version of Chalk Chain (formerly known as Catenaez) is out. It's free so give it a shot. This one gave me a bit of a headache. Anyway, this release shows off adMob integration.

Storyline:
A young guy chooses the "best" used car dealership in Arizona for purchasing his first automobile. The car dealer appears nice and helpful when it comes to selecting the needed vehicle, claiming that the chosen car will get him all the way to San Francisco without problems! Oh, well... good luck boy.
Description:
Help the guy get as far as possible on his newly purchased 'junkmobile'. This will not be easy as parts will be falling off the vehicle during driving. The less parts remain, the slower the car will be moving, while the time is limited! In order to re-attach a falling part, use your finger to catch it and put it back where it belongs. Over time, the rate of parts falling off increases making them harder to catch.
Game features:
- Humor!
- Exellent graphics
- Amusing game moments
- Fun musical support
- Unique characters
- Multiple difficulty levels for everyone's satisfaction
- Simple controls-
Note: this game was created exclusively for fun and cheerful audience! Laughs and fun prolong life!


Enjoy!

My game 'Sir RolyPoly' was approved on the App Store this month.
I have a game trailer and link to the app store here at:
www.weelittlegamer.com
Sir RolyPoly is a puzzle game similar to Boxed In or Blocked on the App Store.
You're goal is to guide Sir Roly Poly through 50 challenging puzzles (to save the princess of course)
I've also included 20 levels especially for kids 4 and up.
